Can wall sockets abroad have voltage that speakers can't handle?

RCPrince asked the right question. Are they active speakers (i.e., containing their own amplifier), or electrostatics or other types requiring AC power?

It appears that the AC in India is nominally 220 volts/50 Hz. If the speakers are AC powered they would not work very well, if at all, without a step-up transformer if you are going to a 120 volt country (e.g. the USA) or to a 100 volt country (e.g. Japan). I suspect that they would do ok in a 240 volt country (e.g. the UK), but look in the manual or check with the manufacturer to be sure.

Of course, if you are also bringing an amplifier or other electronics along it may necessitate the use of a transformer to convert the voltage as well.

The voltage a speaker receives is up to the amp, not the wall socket. Speakers in the US are the same as in Europe.

Are you talking about powered speakers, or passive ones that you drive with an amp/receiver?  The latter should work fine, hooked up to an amp but the former might require an adapter and  a check on local voltages, as noted above.

Yes. But then you will tend to find plugging the speakers into the wall harmful just about everywhere. Plug them into the amp and they will be fine.
